lcutler Pillar of the Community United States 1658 Posts	Posted 07/28/2020 04:52 am I would say just a lot of circulation damage. A lot of wear and tear over the last 54 years. Report this Post to the Staff

oriole Pillar of the Community Canada 5246 Posts	Posted 07/28/2020 10:19 am Circulation wear and tear produces random marks which sometimes vaguely look like letters or numbers or faces. This has a technical term: Pareidolia. Also, on ebay people quite often ask absurd prices for common or damaged coins. Asking prices on ebay are not a good indicator of market value.
